Yes. If the weights are really heavy, exerting yourself that much can detach your retina. Not only weights, any kind of extreme exertion can put enough pressure on the retina to detach it. It isn't that common, though. And in most cases a detached retina can be re-attached.

What is hypermyopia?
Extreme short sightedness Hypermyopia is Retinal Detachment The retina is attached to the sclera in the back of the eye, and a retinal detachment occurs when it is pulled away from this normal position. The retina, like film in a camera, is responsible for creating the images that one sees. A good picture could not be produced if the film were not in its correct location within the camera, and we lose vision if the retina is not in its proper place within the eye. The retina detaches by separating from the back wall of the eye. When it is removed from its blood supply (the choroid), it will lose nourishment and result in a loss of some vision if not repaired in time. This retinal tear may be caused by trauma or by a vitreous detachment (or "posterior vitreous detachment"). Vitreous detachment, not uncommon in older people, results from the vitreous fluid shrinking and pulling away from the retina. This causes "floaters," which do not damage the retina or vision.
